Hi. I'm just wondering if I will lose my DLC keys (The ones that unlock the main doors into the DLCs) if I use the save editor without the unlocked DLC content, or will I get them back after I load my character in game?

Hi. I'm just wondering if I will lose my DLC keys (The ones that unlock the main doors into the DLCs) if I use the save editor without the unlocked DLC content, or will I get them back after I load my character in game?
Thank you for this. I particularly think it's neat that you have kept all of the version history available. I'll check this out and see if I run into any problems.
Thank you, this could not have been very easy.
Hello!
First a great "bravo" and thank you to Jappi88 for that amazing work, I'm a complete novice when it comes to these things and yet the tool is very intuitive and easy to use, really it's great.
So I started to modify a save with 10 character slots, and, after I finished the first one, I wanted to copy it to the 9 other slots (I'm just giving me 999 red orbs, and every weapon and armor non upgraded), so I tried the "extract" and "replace" functions, but I seem to be missing something, because when I want so save the extraction, it actually does nothing... does it have to be placed in a particular folder, or something like that?
Thanks in advance.
Edit : Hum.... nevermind, I just wasn't naming the CHR file I wanted to extract -_-...
But I use that edit to ask another question, about bans : do they discriminate? what I mean is, does a guy who mod his SL to be 838 and his SM 0 has more chance to get banned that me, who only put 999 orbs to avoid the boring arena and equipment non upgraded to avoid boring farming, or do they not care at all?
no don't worry it was my fault, as I stated in my edit in the former page, I wasn't naming the file I wanted to extract so of course it wasn't going to work ^^ have a good day!
good to know.
about your other question.
You are always at risk by modifying your save data.
Changing any stat will increase the ban risk even more.
the safest way is to not play online when edting, else i recomend not to edit any stats.
Moddifying items is low level risk, but still a risk.
They know how long you played, where you traveled, and what items you have collected during your journey.
Most bans are done manually (a few nurds keeping track of all players on their tiny screen).
I have not figured out everything in the save data, they are keeping track of everything you do ingame, if you edit something with my tool then some other values that needed to be changed are not changed and will cause you to be banned.
the only way to make this 100% safe is to figure out everything, and edit accordingly (witch will never happen due the complexity).
Okay thanks for the reply !
Well the way I'm doing it is I only go into online when the build is complete, and when I've destroyed everything that could discredit my SM ( for example a +10 mace that I use to make short work of the early bosses without worry, or the equipment I won't be using) I only skip the farming of items and the arena to get orbs... if, in the build I want to create, there is an item that only drops from an ennemy, then while I'm making the build offline I'll kill that ennemy 2 or 3 times and pretend I got the loot... Certainly they are not fooled but at least I've got a reasonable soul memory for what I have in the end, so, really, if they ban me, it will just be because they absolutely want to make invading in NG as time consuming as possible.... and no, no stat modding with me ^^
After using the tool a bit more, a few more questions to who can answer :)
1. When you select "playthrough" : 2, you are put in NG+ if I understand. Does in mean you are put in the NG+ server as well? Also, the save I'm using is a save with the 10 characters at the very start, before character creation. If I modify it to be on NG+, and I put no name or class, will I get to go through the character creation screen?
2. Yesterday, I modified the first slot of the save, then saved it, extracted it, and copied it on the 9 others slots using the "replace function". Then I erased the extracted file, and saved all the slots. Then when I put it in the ps3, there was something odd : the screen of the selection of the 10 characters displayed 10 identical characters (that's reassuring ^^) with no clothes at all, even though in the game they wore the importation set. then there is the fact that the icon for the saved data of dark souls 2 (when you go in the PS3 menu) was not identical to the one I copied (using cosplay save of domthybomb as a base), it was just a grey icon with the 4 playstation symbol (triangle, circle, etc...) so that seems odd to me too since that usually don't happen. And then this morning, I load the save again in the editor to tweak it a little bit more on the first slot, I save it, extract it, but when I try to use the "replace" function for the other slots, a message pops up saying that the selected slot is invalid. The same goes if I extract ,let's say, the 6th slot and then try to replace the 4th by it, even though, i did no further modification to the 6th slot other than replacing it by the 1st slot yesterday (I'm not sure if I'm very clear...)
So I'm not sure what's going on actually :( If someone has an idea, I'd be glad to hear it. Bye!
I currently can't use this program because I don't have the vital database recourse. So I'm guessing I need the DLC?
Jappi you have my admiration and respect for all your hard work. Will this editor ever be usable for the PC version of Dark Souls 2. That is my format
Kind of a weird question, but is it possible to replace one character's model with another without compromising anything? There doesn't appear to be any editors for your character's actual appearance, so I was wondering if it could be done this way somehow. Unless we're not quite there yet.
I noticed that there are options for importing character stats, progress, etc. Does anything in that section of the editor do anything along those lines?
i have no idea why but i cannot open the program i have tried everything can someone please help?
Keep getting the error "vital database items are missing. The database items will need to be downloaded before you can edit." Idk what to do, I read in the comments on the youtube video to put all the save data on the usb, i did this and it didn't help. I even put the compatability pack and armory dl on there, still same message, pls help!!!
Sadly the program crashes whenever I try to load the save. I always get Unknown Hard Error.
Hello guys,
I can't login with my profile with the tool, it said "user disabled" ? And just before that an other tread : "fail to auto login"
Did I miss something ?
Auto login is a bit finicky I noticed, but logging in manually always worked for me if auto didn't work.
Hey Jappi
I downloaded this tool a few days ago and wanted to get ALL ITEMS including the DLC items, I notice it makes me donate $3
Im perfectly fine with that! because this tool is a masterpiece
Problem is the login wont work for me. I have tried creating a new account but It has been a day or two and I havent gotten the email hash.
Do you log in with an existing 360haven account? or do you make a specific Jappi Dark souls account?
I clicked app info and it just makes me log in so I am not sure and I checked on the first page of this forum and didnt notice anything on the subject.
thanks! Ill reply to anything you post regarding this
EDIT: Yes I have checked my spam folder :P theres nothing
was a little bummed about having to donate at first, but honestly 3 bucks is definitely worth all the work you've put in man. GREAT TOOL you made here.
has anybody been banned for adding a few items or anything like that?wanna make a new build but cant be bother to put 20 hours into it lol.
Hi All,
I just completed the game - version 1.01 - Offline Dark Souls 2 - no DLCs. I see that I re-spawn again at first area with all bonfires gone! Is there a way in the save editor to load all bonfires?
Another questions, If I set the 'play through' on the save editor to a higher number does the difficulty raise? - Why have this feature on the editor.
I made a contribution - thanks for the great editor.
well im not sure why the bonfires dissapear it works fine on mine and yes if you set the playthrough to a higher value the difficulty will increase. The reason is because some people want a better challenge like doing sl 1 on NG + 7
Well when you finish the game and go to new game + it is normal that the bonfires disapear and i think Jappi is working on a bonfire editor right now (i am not sure if or if not) and yes the difficulty raises but i think NG+7 is the highest difficulty after that it´s just for souls and leveling
I hope it helped a little bit :)
Great Work! Just one thing I was curious about, recently there were some event weapons in the Majula chest, do you know of any way to add this in?
Follow-up, sorry I didn't see that they were in with the DLC items, it is kinda lame that you put them behind a donation block though, I understand you need the money, but I had full intention of donating anyway. so putting it behind a donation wall just seemed cheap. Oh well that's my 2 cents, keep up the good work.
You're a cut above the rest, Jappi. I may be a little late coming to this, but thanks! :120:
When I try to make a account so I can use the program, I need a verification hash but im not getting a email, is there any other way to activate my account ?
Edit: Nevermind I just checked I guess I must have got him the minute he decided xD
Ill wait until the login is back up to get the DLC things
Also Jappi I've noticed it takes about 2 minutes sometimes for the editor to detect my USB while before it use to only take a few seconds. I noticed this happens when I'm actually logged in because since the server is offline for the update I imagine, that now it only takes a second. Is there something with being signed in that makes it extremely long? Ill test again once the server is up to see if that is the issue
I haven't used the editor since it was released, I'm waiting on parameter editing to be implemented since I play offline.
My question is, will the account I created and donated on be removed or deactivated if I don't use the editor while I wait?
I just want to make sure.
Awesome work! Thank you!
As always, great job. Thanks :D
Hello it's me again :) I still have the same problem : I modify only the first slot of a save, then, when I want to copy the changes to the 9 other slot, I extract the first slot and use the replace function on the other slots. sadly when I do that and chose to replace by the first slot, a message pops up telling me that "the selected slot is invalid"... any idea what causes this and how it can be fixed? I guess I could manually change the 9 other slots the same way I did with the first, but the changes I do are quite extensive so if I can avoid the time consumption it would be great!
Bye!
how do i recover my account? ive already reset my password but when i try to log in to start editing my saves it says user is disabled? how do i fix this.. ive even tried redownloading the client and it still doesnt work
When I start loading up my save, it encounters a problem with the "Database" and says it is going to update to the latest version, however when it begins to download, it stops and an error occurs. What is the problem I'm having? o_o
I fixed it :)
hey i am trying to edit but it says that the database is out of date but when it goes to update it says database failed
This is probably one of the best editing tools I've seen, thanks a lot :) I was really tired of doing countless soul dupes just to test new builds.
when i try to open the save editor it tells me i need alower .net framework than i have any idea why?
